I carry two PA systems: A full, high fidelity Stack Array system for larger events and a small, very compact system for small rooms and intimate gatherings. I also have stage lighting if needed.
I carry a diverse collection of recorded album music for before starting and between sets
Played the Wash Monument grounds to a crowd of over 200,000 as a drummer in a prominent DC arena rock band.
Casual gatherings. I'm capable of very energetic performance when the crowd is ready for it.
I'm a "lifer" - started playing drums in Kansas City blues bars at age 16, moved to the DC area, then to Miami and to St Petersburg where I moved over to guitar 25 yrs ago
Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, Howlin Wolf
My personal all time favorite song is a toss up between Leon Russell's "A Song For You" and Bobby Caldwell's "What You Won't Do For Love". Any "greatest song of all time" is a very subjective call.
Usually arrive 1 ½ hrs before, and setup no less than 30 minutes before start time
Yes - if shaded from the brutal Florida sun and on a steady platform. Not on grass or sand.
I have a very diverse song list and can tailor the music to the crowd. Song list available on request.
Great variety excellent voice.
